Teaching Empathy Institute
TEI’s School of Belonging training program helps create a school culture that fosters empathic relationships, emotional safety, and real-world learning. It strives to shift the conversation in K-12 education from standardized testing as the sole metric for measuring effective instruction to a more holistic approach that takes into account the social, emotional, and leadership skills necessary for student success in the 21st century.
